Big big profits for the energy suppliers, big big price hikes for us lot.
Shirley people will not be able to cope with such price rises ?
We should re-nationalise immediately.
Too important for the markets to handle, with a built in short term profit view of everything. |  |

Its frightening Jim.
I read that using less will only help a little, as the standing charges are going up ….and there is nothing we can do about it as domestic customers.
Need to reduce taxation to zero whilst energy prices this high.
Instead put a windfall type tax on the energy extraction companies whose profits are off the scale.
Then nationalise. | |

You know what, that is a good idea, reduce the taxes, the green levies but put a windfall tax on the corporates but here's a fact, the government won't do it.
They could make petrol much cheaper just by cutting VAT while prices are so high and that would help inflation too. Again, they won't do it. | |

Standing charges on electricity are more or less doubling.
There is defo a supply issue pushing up prices, but I honestly believe we are being taken advantage of. | | | |

I'm at a loss why electricity is doubling even though some is generated by gas. The standing charge is a mystery. |  |

It's not a mystery, whenever something really bad happens the greedy always use it as an excuse to profiteer. the prices will rise and they won't drop back when the Ukraine war is finished.
The corporates will justify it but we all know, or we should, that they are taking us for a ride.
It's time for Labour to stand up and be counted, tell the greedy corporates that they are going to be targeted if labour win, nationalisation has to be on the agenda or the price rises will cost lives. | |

The red inside me agrees.
The government has enough people to hold what is going on to account. What about the energy ombudsman? | |

Not me the Tories killed our coal industry when there was plenty of coal left still is look at Tower was taken over by the Union and men ran for years after.
We got to import coking coal from the likes of Russia and China these days but we got it over here but can't mine it because of the environment yet we are shipping stuff in how's that good for the environment ffs | | | |

You cant duck green though cos the other stuff will run out, or be too expensive, or be weaponised.
Needs to be a national priority.
Clearly will be a mix but moving towards green through time. | |

Are you aware of how many years of non green stuff we have beneath us?
Do you think that Green "products" can't also be weaponised as we don't make them ourselves and we don't have the materials they are made of.
They will also need replacing in half the time non green stuff does. | | | |

We don't need to spend millions on consultants here. Use the stuff beneath us while we improve our green and nuclear stuff. | |

How about bringing coal mining in to the 21st century?
Ever seen a modern Salt mine?
They use Tunnel boring machines and then work the material. | | | |

100% this, we need to progress towards the green, sustainable stuff gradually reducing our reliance on the fossil fuels.
We should have been doing this for the last 20 years but we can again return to blaming the greedy b'stards and corporate greed.
I wonder, over the last few decades, how much the corporate gants have been fghting against changes the world needed, probably saying the right things in public but behind the scenes simply protecting their profits. that or they have invested in green tech but been charging the earth for any developments.
It's why essential services and utilities should be nationalised. We should never let greedy corporations have control of all the essential stuff. | |

My first thesis was centred on Privatisation. It was a time when public services were incredibly wasteful but it opened the doors for corporate greed. Cream skimming was going to happen but essential services and utilities should never have been subjected to these business practices.
A very contentious hot potato in political services but I believe that there should be cross party recognition of how important it is for energy to be nationalised. | |

Why are standing charges for electricity and gas going up when they are the same cables and pipes they are using to bring the electrify and gas to our homes. |  |

Looks like it’s linked to picking up the tab for the companies who’ve gone out of business.
I know energy rice have gone up, but I genuinely believe we are being ripped off. I drove past 3 petrol stations located in our town today, a supermarket was selling a litre of diesel for £175.9 as was a local independent Texaco garage, a nearby independent garage was selling diesel for £186.9 - all 3 are in a mile or so of each other. 11p per litres soon adds up! | | | |

I can remember masive public outcries when petrol went up ove 1p per Gallon, how we have been brainwashed to accept price increases. | | | |
